NACUA now serves nearly 2,500 attorneys who represent some 1,300 campuses (about 660 institutions). The Association’s purpose is to improve the quality of legal assistance to colleges and univer- sities by educating attorneys and administrators on legal issues in higher education. NACUA accomplishes this goal through its publications, conferences, and workshops. NACUA also operates a clearinghouse for references through which attorneys share knowledge and work products on current legal problems. With its headquarters in Washington, D.C., NACUA monitors govern- mental developments having significant legal implications for its member institutions, coordinates the exchange of information concerning all aspects of law affecting higher education, and cooperates with other higher education associations to provide general legal information and assistance. Accredited institutions of higher education in the United States and Canada are the primary constituents of NACUA. Each member institution may be represented by several attorneys, any of whom may attend NACUA meetings, perform work on committees, and serve on the Board of Directors. Approximately one-half of NACUA member institutions are private, nonprofit institutions of higher education with enrollments below 5,000 students and current fund expenditures below $50 million per year. Collectively, these institutions enroll approximately 650,000 students. The remaining member institutions, whose budgets range up to $4 billion per year, collectively enroll more than six million students.

The Notre Dame program educates men and women to become lawyers of ex- traordinary professional competence who possess a partisanship for justice, an ability to respond to human need, and a compassion for their clients and colleagues. Notre Dame Law School equips its students to practice law in every state and in several foreign nations. The school raises and explores the moral and religious questions presented by the law. The learning program is geared to skill and service. Thus, the school is committed to small classes, especially in the second and third years, and emphasizes student participation. In order to further its goal of creating lawyers who are both compe- tent and compassionate, Notre Dame Law School is relatively small. The Admissions Committee makes its decisions based on a concept of the ‘‘whole person.’’ The Law School offers several joint degree programs, including M.B.A./J.D. and M.Div./J.D. Notre Dame Law School is the only law school in the United States that offers study abroad for credit on both a summer and year-round basis. Instruction is given in Notre Dame’s own London Law Centre under both American and English professors. Notre Dame Law School serves as the headquarters for The Journal of College and University Law. The Center for Civil and Human Rights, the Institute for International Peace Studies, the National Institute for Trial Advocacy and the Thomas J. White Center on Law and Government all enrich the Notre Dame Law School experience.

THE JOURNAL OF COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY LAW Volume 22 Summer 1995 Number 1 ARTICLES TABLE OF CONTENTS FOCUS ON INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS Sports Reform: College Athletics in Flux 1995 Symposium This issue of The Journal includes the text of the speeches of the symposium on intercollegiate ath- letics reform, which was held at the University of Notre Dame on February 24-25, 1995 and was spon- sored jointly by The Journal and the Notre Dame Law School. It features discussions on subjects such as government attempts at regulating intercollegiate ath- letics, trends in NCAA regulation, and Title IX, as well as speeches and articles that address intercolle- giate athletics from historical and sociological per- spectives. CASE COMMENT Par for the Female Course: Cohen v. Brown University Mandates an Equal Playing Field in Intercollegiate Athletics Jill Mulderink NOTE Coercion Theory and the State Action Doctrine As Applied in NCAA v. Tarkanian and NCAA v. Miller Betty Chang Due Process in the Accreditation Context: A Reply Mark L. Pelesh 175 In a reply to Due Process in the Accreditation Context, published in the Summer 1994 issue of The Journal, the author contends that consfitutional due process require- ments should remain inapplicable to accrediting agencies. The article first reviews the recent trend of Supreme Court decisions on due process along with other cases in which the applicability of constitutional due process require- ments to the accreditation process has been considered and then examines the 1992 Amendments to the Higher Education Act. The author concludes that Due Process ad- vocates unwarranted, unnecessary, and deleterious pro- cedural innovations in the accreditation process. NOTE United States v.

JOURNAL OF COLLEGE AND UNIVERSITY LAW [Vol. 22, No. 1 INTRODUCTION AND WELCOME WILLIAM BEAUCHAMP, C.S.C., EXECUTIVE VICE PRESIDENT, THE UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME Introduction by Mr. Heisler Good Morning and welcome to the University of Notre Dame. I am John Heisler, the Sports Information Director at the University. On behalf of the Notre Dame Law School and The Journal of College and University Law, welcome to a Sports Law Symposium entitled ‘‘Sports Reform: College Athletics in Flux.’’ Over the next day and a half you will be hearing from experts in the area of sports law, university administration, and athletics administra- tion, as well as from three representatives of the NCAA. Their assign- ment is to analyze the current state of college’ athletics and its existence, not only as a forum for our nation’s student athletes, but also as one of the country’s major entertainment vehicles. They will look at rela- tionships between the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and its member institutions and how those relationships have changed since the NCAA, now with more than eight hundred schools under its banner, first began to administer college athletic championships back in 1921. Our first speaker this morning brings with him not only a law degree, but also extensive experiences in administration of both athletics and academics. Executive Vice President of the University of Notre Dame since 1987, he also is a member of the faculty, teaching business law in the College of Business Administration, and is the Chairman of the faculty board in control of athletics at the University. After receiving his degree from the Notre Dame Law School, he returned to Alma, Michigan to work as an attorney in a local general practice law firm. Following his ordination to the Roman Catholic priesthood in 1982, he served as the executive assistant to his predecessor, executive vice president Reverend Edmund P. Joyce, and subsequently to then-presi- dent Reverend Theodore M. Hesburgh. He is involved in a variety of local charitable and civic organizations including United Way, Project Future, Junior Achievement, National Alcoholism of Michiana, the Saint Joseph Care Group, and the Logan Foundation. He is also a member of the Olympic Sports Liaison Committee of the NCAA. Please welcome the executive vice president of the University of Notre Dame, Father William Beauchamp. Remarks by Rev. Beauchamp, C.S.C. First, on behalf of Father Malloy, the president of the University, and all of my colleagues at the University, I welcome our guests to 1.
